About

According to ancient custom, Wassailing fruit trees at this time of year is the only certain way to guarantee good crops in the Autumn. It's as old as the hills and as daft as a brush.

Wrap up warm, bring a pot and a wooden spoon, and join Kilter Theatre as they take up the rituals of drumming, shouting and hurling slices of toast into the branches. You know it makes sense.

The Wassail will be hosted by Kilter's Olly in the guise of calendar month, January, standing astride the past and future with a snotty cold, a bicycle hooter and a ludicrous brummie accent.

Needless to say, Bath City Farm is beautiful, the hot chocolate in the cafe is delicious and, with you there, the company will be unparalleled!

Wassail is part of Kilter’s long-term ambition to celebrate the changing seasons in the beautiful landscape around Bath and is a collaboration with Bathscape Landscape Partnership, a National Lottery Heritage Fund supported project aimed at reconnecting people with the natural landscape surrounding Bath.

All welcome. Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult. Tickets are free, but booking is essential.
